This mall is excelling thru my standards!! I had play dates with friends here, birthday celebration and huge shopping spree. My mom is a gold member at the point because of how much we go to this mall monthly. I personally live in sha tin district and it's the closest nicest mall near me. For me I'm a girl and the girls toilets are always full. Like you gotta wait in line bud, the line is very long until door area. The fact that this mall has an instrument store made it better. Becuase me I live with a 3 year old and can't buy instruments becuase the 3 year old will destroy the instrument so I don't have any. I usually go to home square for the instrument to play with but now I can just go to New Town plaza!! This mall sells a lot of good stuff. It's connected to 4 - 5 different malls ( Lucky Plaza, Hilton Plaza and Sha tin plaza) those were the 3 malls I can think of right now but I know for a fact that new town plaza has different phrases. Me as a girl I like shopping expensive things such as coach, Dior, Apple Store and much more. I find new town plaza a great mall to socialise, hang out and shop. This mall has everything you wish for as a girl but I don't know about men becuase I'm a student, not dating anyone never thought about men stuff. Thanks for reading my review. Hope you have a wonderful day at new town plaza if you're going there!! read more

We made a trek up to the Sha Tin neighborhood in the New Territories and the Sha Tin MTR station feeds right into this mall. It's a big mall and is known to be one of the busiest in all of Hong Kong. It was first opened in the 1980's but has been kept renovated and modernized and it currently still has a fresh and contemporary feel to it. As is typical with Hong Kong malls, there are a ton of shops, eateries, and tons of people to go with them. We ended up having a very nice dim sum lunch here at one of their main and popular restaurants, the Peking Garden restaurant. This first visit to Sha Tin personally gave me a feel for what a more residential area is like out in the "boonies" of Hong Kong, and it is a bit more laid back than in Hong Kong proper. read more

Great place to shop if you're visiting Sha Tin. This enormous mall consists of Phase 1, Phase 3, and Grand Central Plaza. There are an enormous number of number of shops and restaurants here, covering everything from cheap snacks to Michelin Star restaurants. Prices are also fairly reasonable, even at the higher end restaurants and the food court. Perhaps the biggest draw of this mall is that it's a large number of interconnected shops -- allowing you to eat and shop to your heart's content... even during a typhoon. It is also conveniently connected to subway and bus stations if you wish to wander elsewhere. If you're a visitor, it is connected right next to Royal Park Hotel -- an upscale hotel that is priced very reasonably and provides great rooms and services. Some restaurants you should probably checkout are: Shanghai Min, Nha Trang, Din Tai Fung, and Lei Garden, And for something sweet Patisserie Tony Wong, Honeymoon Desserts, and Lucullus. There's also tons of great places in adjacent malls and you can easily spend weeks here exploring everything. read more

If I had to name a capital for the New Territories in Hong Kong, I would say that it would be Sha Tin. And if I had to name its epicenter, that would be the New Town Plaza. This shopping center is massive. It consists of two phases (Phase 1 and 3). Not sure what happened to Phase 2? Phase 1 is the main mall and is nine stories tall. It is connected to another mall, Citylink Plaza as well as MTR Sha Tin Station. A bus terminal is also right outside with buses to other parts of the NT. New Town Plaza has a nice mix of retailers. There are high-end brands as well chains that appeal to the masses here. Though it seemed like there were mostly clothing stores here. But apparently there is a tech floor (6th) that I never got to check out even though I was here just about everyday of my trip. What New Town seems to lack are anchor department stores like shopping malls in the US have. There is one here called YATA in Phase 3, but that is the only one. While New Town has many of the stores that you would find in Kowloon or Hong Kong Island, I kind of found shopping here to be kind of boring since I wanted to explore as much of HK as I could. Though a local would find that to be a plus since it is convenient. The crowds here on weekdays can be bad, especially during rush hour. But weekends are just absolutely horrible. If you are travelling in a group, you definitely risk getting lost in the crowd. If you live in the NT, New Town Plaza is the default shopping mall to go into the area. It is fine if you want to shop close by, but I prefer shopping at the malls in the city better. Just my preference. read more

This is a huge plaza, you can get a lot of stuff here, but price ain't cheap. Restaurants are located either the basement or 3 floor. During weekends normally is crowded and sometimes some stores have discounts. In this plaza there is a Japanese supermarket and dessert place. Their matcha ice cream is creamy and love the taste of it. Will come back again read more

While I have to give it to New Town Plaza for being a very accessible and comprehensive shopping mall - you have practically everything - it is just WAY TOO CROWDED. TOO CROWDED. During peak hours, there are lines for all the restaurants, and with the recent opening of Hey Tea, there's about a 1 hour wait for that too. Lines for the ladies bathroom is around 10 minutes. Taking escalators you are shoulder to shoulder with someone next to you. The only times I have been to NTP are on the weekends or public holidays, and it is full of hungry shoppers from China (a boost for our economy!) and locals who just love spending time at the mall. It's easy to get lost as the complex is huge and there are two different floors for restaurants, so look carefully before walking over. read more

I love New Town Plaza. It's organized well, with each floor being a different category of goods. There's always security and information people helping out. Every month or so, there's an exciting new exhibit that catches everyone's eyes, whether it's Lego's, CNY-themed, or a Dior photospot! It's a fun place to take the kids for a short shopping spree. My daughters love it! read more

A huge mall but it's just a mall. There are a lot of brand name specialty stores, which is typical of malls everywhere. Someone said it may take a couple of days to visit the entirety and it's not too far from truth. I'd say that this mall is a lot more family-friendly than others because it has a few places for kids only. And the eateries not bad. read more

Super big shopping center in shatin. This shopping center is really big and spacious and it's quite comparable to our Takashimaya or maybe even bigger. Hope I don't get it wrong. Guess this is the largest shopping center in Shatin. There is a Japanese food street and a Japanese supermarket which selling lots of Japanese stuff. But other than Japanese food they do have lots of restaurant and shopping ranging from lots of branding. I think I would need days to complete the building. This is the only place which I can go as it's located just next to my hotel.Can't really venture into this shopping as I'm there for a business trip. If you are staying nearby do pop by and have a walk read more

Out of all the malls I've seen in Hong Kong so far, this one might really be my favorite. It's a bit out of the way of the touristy area but overall still pretty accessible by subway or bus. As a first timer, this mall is intimidatingly HUGE. I can't even tell you how many levels there are because I just don't know. I had dinner at one of the many restaurants on L8 but I feel like that wasn't even the top floor (or maybe it was? Who knows.) The mall has all the mall usuals for me, American and European brands are all over the place so be prepared to have to WALK! So why am I giving it only 4 stars? I loved this mall, I really did. But as my first time here I was completely lost. Above that, I had such a difficult time finding directories. You would think that in a mall of this size, signs and directories would be all over the place. But sadly no. So even though I loved all that this mall had to offer, I felt like it was missing something. Maybe if I had lived in Sha Tin for a while now and knew where each store was I would be able to give this mall a higher rating, but as a tourist, be prepared to get lost. read more

I am not much of a new territories person, I am usually stuck on the Hong Kong island side, so for me, I would consider Shatin far, so clearly not out here every weekend. I do have some relatives who live out here though so once in a while, I will pay them a visit. Whenever we visit them, we would most of the time end up at new town plaza for dinner. I am quite impressed seeing how much this shopping mall has grown throughout the years. When I used to come to HK to visit relatives when I was younger, I would stay in Shatin so I would hang out there with my family, spending all day at the mall. Back then, it was an okay mall, not as much to see and very local. But the last time I visited, I was really impressed by the quality of shops here. They have grown a lot, now with most of the international brands in HK, they have restaurants of different calibre, they have a very adequate children's section and play area, they have shops for young and old. It's grown so much and the quality of shops seems to just get better and better. I can see why people would rave about this mall and if I lived closer, I'm pretty sure I would be here much more frequently. read more

New Town Plaza is probably my most-visited mall due to its proximity to my house. New Town Plaza is pretty easy to navigate, in my opinion, and it's quite well organized - for example, one section of the forth floor is all shoes and the fifth floor is devoted to sportswear. New Town Plaza itself is pretty big, and it's connected to a LOT of other smaller malls, like Citylink, Shatin Plaza, Yata etc - so just when you think you're done with it, you're really not. You can literally spend a whole day in the area and not get bored! New Town Plaza is great for both eating and shopping. No matter what your budget is, there's something for you. Don't want to spend more than $70 for lunch? The sixth floor has three inexpensive Japanese restaurants, or head to the first floor for a more varied fare. If you don't mind shelling out a little more, you can't go wrong with Lei Garden up on the sixth floor. As for shopping, there's everything from H&M and Zara to Club Monaco and Moschino. If you're really on a budget, go to nearby mall Citylink - the boutiques there are inexpensive but a lot of the clothes are tacky so you'll need time to browse, and there are a ton of cheap eats like Eurogogo and Fairwood. You can try Yata (also known as New Town Plaza Phase 3) too, a mid-range department store that's kind of like Apita over at Tai Koo Shing. As for grocery shopping, in order of most to least expensive, there's Citysuper, the Yata supermarket and Parknshop, which you can get to via a passageway near Agnes B on the third floor. The one bad thing about NTP is that it is always pretty crowded, especially on weekends and public holidays. It's a couple of train stops from the border so it's a popular place for mainlanders to come and shop at. Don't be surprised to see them wheeling in luggages and packing in their buys outside H&M. Besides this, NTP is a great place for shopping and I'd recommend it to anyone on this side of HK! read more

New Town Plaza is probably in your checklist when you come to Shatin. You can find a large number of, if not most, things you want here, ranging from basics, food to outfit. Some floors, such as the 5th and 6th, are specialised for a particular type of items, be it sportswear or electronic gadgets. I can apply what I learnt in Economics in this case - agglomeration. From a consumer's point of view, we can see the latest products here and easily compare the models and prices that various stores offer. We can save our time searching online as well - the staff of the stores are willing to help as long as you ask them. Having lived in the district since I was born, I should definitely be considered as one of the witnesses of its changes. I remember a large fountain was located at the arena on 3/F. My parents took lots of photos of us there when I was a small kid. In the past there were a number special stores. Mini Melts had a branch there and I always found it expensive though I loved eating that little ice cream. As a typical teenager, I loved taking photo stickers with my friends in the area specialised for Japanese items. However, the New Town Plaza has undergone drastic changes in recent years, which definitely upset most, if not all, residents living in this area. The symbolic places and typical local shops faded away and got replaced by some luxurious brands. The Music Fountain? It was removed and is now the central arena for various kinds of exhibitions. What about those bookstores like Popular and the Commercial Press? They now become the international brand-named boutiques. Though they're moved to the shopping malls - Home Square and Yata - nearby, I couldn't find that feeling of searching for my reading paradise - finding an inspirational book and reading it page by page on a comfy sofa. Everything has become too commercial. When you walk out of the MTR station, what you can find are just brands, brands and brands, or, to be more accurate, brand-named clothing, perfume, accessories or cosmetics. Those local features are just buried. If I had to chance to choose, I'd prefer the old and grassroots one which is less prosperous. This is the collective memory of us - Sha Tin people. It'd be much more enjoyable to have dinner with my parents in a decent tea house rather than cramming with all those visitors just to take a look at the new trainer / smartphone model. read more

新城市廣場 - Shopping Centers Near Me - Hong Kong, HK

Sha Tin New Town Plaza is one of the malls where it connects to many buildings and shopping centers in the Sha Tin section of Hong Kong. The mall in theory opens 24 hours but most of the shops would open 10am and end late. On most days it can be packed with many students who need to transfer to other stations through the MTR and also travellers who love to come shop here. On national holidays, the store can be a mayhem. There is also a group of people who come in suitcases stocking up with many cans baby milk formula and other products and they come in by the dozen just stocking them up in order to sell to the customers in China. Needless to say, Sha Tin has many clothing stores from Abercrombie & Fitch to Zara. There also is an organic food store where customers can buy produce, A5 Wagyu Beef and other delicious food. This is one of the malls I would recommend if you need a place to stay as the Royal Park Hotel is connected to the mall as well. Overall, a great shopping mall to be in. read more

my most visited shopping mall in the past 3 years since I worked in the building next to it lol. extremely crowded no matter weekends or weekdays. therefore finding a place to eat is a chore even they hv more than 20 eateries to choose from. be sure to download their shopping mall app to "get tickets" at these restaurants in advance so u dun need to run around to each restaurant. so yea my fav outlets would be ding tai fung for xiao long bao, school food for Korean nibbles, ucc for their lunch sets, spaghetti house in phase 1 for lunch, ruby Tuesday, cocomo, rosie cafe, pizza express, pokka cafe, park view, lei garden etc. they hv shops such as Victoria secret, body shop, laura mercier, folli folli, nine west which I visit often haha! read more
